Anaerobic digestion (AD) of wastes and residues is a widely applied and explored process. However, when the process is not optimized, inadequate concentrations of nutrients and inhibitory compounds are common and can lead to low maximum organic loading rates and increased risk of process problems, low organic dry solids degradation rate and reduced methane yields. To overcome process instability a
The European spruce bark beetle is considered as one of the most destructive forest insects to Norway spruce trees in Europe. Climate change may increase the frequency and intensity of bark beetle outbreaks. It is therefore of vital importance to detect the bark beetle outbreaks and take it under control to prevent further damages. Remote sensing techniques may provide a cost-efficient solution to
Nu kommer kraven för att återställa naturen – hur ska företagen lösa detta bortprioriterade ämne? Planetens alla livsavgörande funktioner såsom matförsörjning och materialtillgångar är beroende av en välmående natur. Funktioner som just nu håller på att gå förlorade på grund av en global massutrotning av planetens arter. Äntligen börjar makthavare lyfta blicken och inse att det inte bara handlar oBiodiversity is fundamental for human well-being, and we depend on nature’s ecosystem services for our survival. Today, biodiversity loss occurs at an accelerating rate and the number of endangered species is higher than ever. Despite this, biodiversity loss has long been overshadowed by the climate issue. However, the issue of biodiversity is now receiving more attention and new frameworks and po
The aim of this study was to investigate how hospital counselors in specialized palliative care reason about their discretion and their professional role in the multi-professional team, in order to deepen the understanding of their professional role as well as the psychosocial work that is carried out within the medical context. The methodology was based on a qualitative approach using seven semi-
Strålbehandling är en viktig behandling av cancer och det är avgörande att ge de föreskrivna stråldoserna exakt på rätt plats för att lyckas. Innan en patient behandlas verifieras strålbehandlingen genom kontrollmätningar. Dessa kontrollmätningar utförs med små detektorer som är placerade i ett fantom. Dessa mäter dosen endast i de punkter där de placeras. Stråldosen som ligger mellan dessa punkteBackground & Purpose: Radiation therapy is an essential treatment for cancer patients with the ultimate goal to deliver radiation doses to the tumour with precision while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues. Treatment verification is crucial to ensure the accuracy of radiation delivery, for instance by measuring the radiation dose distribution. Among various dosimetry techniques
2023 kom ett nytt HD-avgörande mot bakgrund av en situation då en klocka förvarad i en lånad bil blivit utmätt för förarens skulder. De gällde tolkningen av besittningsbegreppet i äganderättspresumtionen i 4 kap 18 § UB, men kan placeras i den större kontexten av tredje mans rätt vid utmätning av lös egendom. Denna uppsats syftar till att belysa aspekter i utsökningsbalkens reglering av tredje mThis year, a new judgment has emerged from the Swedish Supreme court, concerning the interpretation of the concept of possession in Chapter 4, § 18 of The Enforcement Code. The case involves the situation of a watch placed in a borrowed car, which was attached for the debts of the driver, and can be situated in the broader context of the relationship to a third party upon the attachment of persona
Importance Active perinatal care increases survival of extremely preterm infants; however, improved survival might be associated with increased disability among survivors. Objective To determine neurodevelopmental outcome in extremely preterm children at 2.5 years (corrected age). Design, Setting, and Participants Population-based prospective cohort of consecutive extremely preterm infants born be
Background Diabetes has been defined on the basis of different biomarkers, including fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h plasma glucose in an oral glucose tolerance test (2hOGTT), and HbA(1c). We assessed the effect of different diagnostic definitions on both the population prevalence of diabetes and the classification of previously undiagnosed individuals as having diabetes versus not having diabet
The ever increasing data rates in wireless communication require analog to digital converters (ADCs) with greater requirements on speed and accuracy, while being power efficient to prolong battery life. This dissertation contains an introduction to the field and five papers that focus on the continuous-time (CT) Delta-Sigma modulator (DSM) as ADC. Paper I analyses the performance degradation of d
The exhaustion doctrine (also known in some jurisdictions as the ''first sale doctrine See U.S. Copyright Code Section 109(a)'') is one of the basic rules of intellectual property (IP) system, and is applied to many IP rights, from copyright to trademark. The term ''exhaustion'' or ''first sale'' describes the concept of this rule, where, after the &

Vid en diskussion om nivån på den svenska bolagsskatten är det av stor vikt att avgöra huruvida diskussionen rör den nominella eller den effektiva skattesatsen. Den nominella skattesatsen uppgår till 28 procent och återfinns i 65 kap. 14 § IL. Den effektiva skattesatsen är däremot inte given utan kan i viss utsträckning påverkas, eftersom den bestäms genom att dividera skatt på årets resultat med
Offentlig-privat samverkan (”OPS”) kan ses som en typ av offentlig upphandling där en eller flera privata aktörer, genom ett gemensamt projektbolag, levererar en tjänst på uppdrag av en offentlig beställare, vanligtvis ett infrastrukturprojekt inom transport, energiförsörjning, utbildning eller sjukvård. Utmärkande för OPS är att projektbolaget ansvarar för alla delar av projektet, inklusive projePublic-private partnership ("PPP") can be seen as a type of public procurement where one or more private actors, through a joint project company, deliver a service on behalf of a public client, typically an infrastructure project in transportation, energy supply, education, or healthcare. A distinguishing feature of PPP is that the project company is responsible for all aspects of the pr
Geographic information systems are used to integrate historical water quality data with information layers derived from diverse sources and represents important tools for the water resources management at watershed scale. This study aimed to collect data sources at the watershed level and compare coincident water quality parameters to find spatial and temporal changes related to land use / land co
ASG Narrating Climate Futures Grappling with the challenge of climate change requires action in the present that addresses how we want the future to unfold. This requires foresight of alternative futures and how our actions can shape the world to come. There are a range of techniques to this end – from modelling and scenario techniques, demonstration and experimentation, to cultural interventions
